A member asked:

Doctors can you tell me how often should i get cat scans for my migraines?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Amy Levine answered

Changes: If you have already had a negative ct, a repeat study is not indicated for routine migraine. If your symptoms change, your doctor may want to re-image.

Dr Accurso and another doctor agreed
